What TB is that? RS4 or is that RS6?

**Crasy** · 02-21-2012 07:48 PM

I think it is a ported rs4 tb

Sick Rig and great build....
This thread just sealed the deal for me...My Avant will stay Pearl White when it goes WB, I love the color on the WB Avant.

Thanks, just hope it's worth it in the end.

Custom made intake (fits both S4 and RS4), waithing for some CNC love.

These have bigger overall inside diameter then the RS4.

Stock RS4 intake mani
@ head: 56mm x 27,5mm

LOBA intake mani
@ head: 59mm x 31mm
@ trumpets LOBA intake mani is 4mm bigger than stock
this is inner diemeter...

Can read more about it here

It's companies like 034 Motorsport and Loba Motorsport that make me wish I'd win the lottery...

**NKI 337** · 02-26-2012 05:28 PM

I think if you add the price of that lob a build list you could buy every single b5 s4 out here on audizine !

**jibberjive** · 02-26-2012 05:53 PM

No kidding, beautiful stuff, but not cheap (nor should it be).

**Crasy** · 03-09-2012 07:32 AM

Progress :)

**TweetsS4Estate** · 03-09-2012 07:43 AM

So cool!!! I didn't see if you said you were using their cams..? If so does anyone have comparison tests?

**greg@dubaudi** · 03-09-2012 07:56 AM

Sweet keep up the good work

**S4 00 2.7** · 03-09-2012 08:34 AM

Looks great. Excellent work.

**PAT@RSW** · 03-09-2012 09:20 AM

Nice !

**034Motorsport** · 03-09-2012 09:45 AM

LOoking awesome as always, Andre! You are going to have one of the most worked over and beautiful B5's in the world. I'm sure I've said that before in this thread lol.

**Crasy** · 03-10-2012 12:23 AM

**sherbet** · 03-10-2012 10:49 AM

Im so glad that builds like this exist. keep up the good work!

**groovetek** · 03-10-2012 02:27 PM

So 700hp and no external wastegates, nice.

**Don Supreme** · 03-12-2012 08:11 AM

I am really excited to see how well that IM works.

**Crasy** · 03-12-2012 01:18 PM

He got the original rs4 manifold ported to match the 2.8 heads he got.
The loba im was still in development when he ported his heads.

I'm using LOBA mechanical cams! (they also sell hydraulic cams)

OEM RS4 Intake/Exhaust cams vs LOBA hydraulic Intake/Exhaust cams tested at MRC in London.

NOTE: Running 2PSI less with the LOBA cam installed, still making more power over the hole rpm range!

**arotished** · 03-13-2012 06:04 AM

Thanks for all your positive feedback!

**Crasy** · 04-03-2012 01:47 PM

**034Motorsport** · 04-03-2012 02:07 PM

What are the size of those bipipes??

**S4 00 2.7** · 04-03-2012 03:05 PM

Thats purdy.

**fatezero** · 04-03-2012 05:11 PM

@Max I believe they are 67mm. I have a set at my shop that are going into a car soon. They are really good quality

**GURUMAN** · 04-03-2012 05:41 PM

Very impressive OEM looking work !

**Gujuhammer** · 04-03-2012 05:51 PM

Great work!..That is one expensive oreo you got there.

Thanks! The idea is to keep it as close as OEM look as possible.

**GURUMAN** · 04-04-2012 03:57 PM

Am I the only one seeing 14% drivetrain loss, very interesting...

If i reach similar results with my cams, I'll more than happy !

**arotished** · 04-06-2012 02:02 PM

As you know, cams dont have anything to do with the drivetrainlost. The car was tested on the same dyno the same day, before and after the LOBA cam installation :-)

I never liked engine numbers, give me the output on the wheel and people can use whatever drivetrain.

Cheers!

No you got that wrong...

was just sayiing that in America, we settled for a 25% average drivetrain loss. ( by comparing a bone stock 250 BHP 2.7 rated from Audi to outputting 190 WHP on a chassis dyno. Nothing scientific, just maths)

You guys actually have a tool in a MAHA dyno to calculate more accurately, I find results very interesting...

Second part, it's the first time I see a real comparaison about cams and their results on the V6

**AudiA4_20T** · 04-08-2012 07:32 AM

So you're doing Solid lifters?

Weird thing is my buddie went on a Maha dyno and made 572hp at the crank and "only" 383whp with his T04 Audi S2 running 2.5bar ... That's almost 40% drivetrain loss , kinda crazy ....

**andream88** · 04-10-2012 01:41 AM

MRC have a CARTEC dyno, not MAHA.

My car completely stock made 212awhp on AWE Tuning's dyno... of course every dyno is different.
